I am getting my S III on Thursday and was curious if the Nexus' OEM extended battery is the same as the SIII's. Both are 2100, but I am wondering if I could use that extended battery as a backup for the SIII.
Only one way to find out ...
Blazing Galaxy S3

I know the regular battery is not the same size. I believe the S3 is shorter and fatter, and the GN is Taller and narrower.....only by a hair. Literally. But it moves
Nope not the same size

I'd say 3800. 2100 isn't enough if you need to use it for a whole day without charging it.

I got my phone today, fully charged it and it burned 15% in just 30 min of browsing and picture taking... Definitely need something better than the stock battery
Hi,
I have searched but didn't find any information, and for good reasons... They former hasn't launched globally yet.
Would it be possible to use a SG3 battery in GNex? I understand the GNex is a smaller device, but could have same battery compartment as SG3?
Anyone tried? If it's possible, imagine the battery benefits... But me thinks Sammy is a little smarter than that
Thanks!

Why not just buy an extended battery.. basically the same capacity and a guaranteed fit.

Just buy the GNex extended battery...
I wanted to get the Verizon one since it's pretty much OEM quality, but cannot ship to Canada...
I prefer to stick with OEM, which is why I am wondering if a battery swap could work... Hmmm

The Verizon battery won't even fit in your phone.

The Verizon battery won't fit the GSM model.

Verizon battery won't fit. The Samsung extended battery for the GSM model is OEM.
Where can I obtain the Samsung extended battery for GSM?
What's the capacity?
I am still interested in seeing if anyone had luck using SG3 battery in GNex...
Thanks

Samsung one is 2050mAh
It won't make a difference. Just buy a battery that is guaranteed to work.

They're all over eBay from Korean sellers, about $30-$35 right now including a new back cover (you need it).
The SGSIII one won't fit. Just buy the 2000mAh Samsung GNex one.
Just Google Samsung Galaxy Nexus OEM extended battery..
The vzw one won't fit.. you could always just buy a after market battery with the same mAh tho

Except aftermarket ones don't have the same MAh.
I couldn't find any info on this, but does the 2100mah battery fit into the epic touch? Seems like there was a store (from a slickdeals post) selling an extended battery for the S3 that is the identical product to the epic touch...so they physically are the same dimensions as the original battery right?
Not sure but I will definitely be getting one if that is the case!
I'm pretty sure the sizes are different

S2 battery isn't the same size as S1... but it fits
I think the real question is who is going to take the time to jump and buy one and test then report the results
The gs3 battery is bigger and wont fit, there's a pic comparing both on the gs3 thread in general.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I don't think it will fit.
So did we confirm that the S3 battery will NOT work with our Epic 4G Touch? Thanks!

Yes
Unless you put a few wires from the copper connectors to the terminals of the battery then it would., wouldn't ?

Can anyone here offer a comparison of the battery life on the Galaxy Nexus compared to the Nexus 4? I was thinking of getting the N4 but have been reading a lot of reviews that say the battery life is terrible.
Battery life is not very good on the nexus 4. What really sticks is you cannot pop in a spare when needed.

I say worse. People ate receiving defective chargers and phone gets warm. I would ask in the above thread because a lot of those dudes had the galaxy nexus.

Hey guys! My town just got 4G and i was wondering what would be the best battery to get because i know that the drain on the phone is pretty fast with the lte connection. i already have the official Samsung extended battery.

I bought this from ebay, works very nice.
Genuine Samsung Google Galaxy Nexus GT I9250 2000mah Extended Battery Case + Cover
It keeps the phone to a very decent size and it also has the NFC built in.
I use it with MiNCO rom and I must say the battery life is amazing!
PS: This is for the GSM (GT-i9250) model, what is your model? I don't think it would work with the LTE model
The stock battery is just shot on my Galaxy Nexus and this one looks good how much time are you getting between charges, and does it make the phone bulky? Thanks in advance
Will that work with the Sprint version?
My Gnex is white... There is an extanded battery whith a white cover for it?
